(37)

The situation in churches around the world is now dominated by doctrines like the Trinity, Augustine, Luther, and Calvin, which absolutely cannot bring salvation, and the Apostles' Creed.

When we point out these issues, they treat us as heretics, regardless of the reason.

Those who prioritize human doctrines firmly believe Calvin's assertion that the Holy Spirit ceased to work after the early church.

Therefore, when the Holy Spirit begins to work today, they unconditionally condemn it as the work of Satan.

Calvin's assertion that the Holy Spirit ceased to work is completely contrary to the Bible.

Everyone must repent and receive the Holy Spirit. Those without the Holy Spirit are not Christ's people.

Churches without the Holy Spirit's work are dead churches, having lost their vitality.

In the Book of Revelation, the candlestick symbolizes the church. An unlit candlestick represents a dead candle, and a church without the Holy Spirit's work is a dead church.

Dead churches do not pray, repent, or obey, do not practice God's Word, and do not love one another.

These churches are formal churches without the presence of the Lord.

Those who do not pray are arrogant people who do not seek God.

How can those who do not seek God receive God's help?

Why do they believe in Calvin's cessationism and unconditionally dismiss the work of the Holy Spirit as the work of Satan?

When light enters, darkness automatically disappears, and that place becomes brighter.

Calvin's claim is the same as saying, "Light has entered, but darkness remains."

When we receive the Holy Spirit, our hearts and actions change, and our lives are automatically transformed into goodness and beauty.

When water boils, steam automatically forms. Their claim is like saying, "Even when water boils, there is no steam."

Those who truly repent and receive the Holy Spirit automatically experience changes in their inner heart and outward actions.

However, Calvin asserted that the work of the Holy Spirit ceased since the early church.

Those who believe this false claim unconditionally condemn and accuse the work of God's Holy Spirit of being the work of Satan.

They deny the work of the Holy Spirit while acknowledging the existence of Satan.

Such people serve Satan more than God. They must repent quickly and receive the Holy Spirit.

I want to confirm together what the Bible says about the Holy Spirit.

When the Holy Spirit comes, our hearts are automatically warmed and transformed. Repentance is not simply a matter of lip service.

When we receive the Holy Spirit and read the Bible, our sins are pricked, deep repentance wells up from our hearts, and fervent tears of repentance flow.

When we hear the Word of God, the Holy Spirit works, transforming our hearts and leading us to a new life.

Those who receive the Holy Spirit, speak in tongues, and prophesy, are to edify others and the church.

A serious problem arises when those who have received the gifts of the Holy Spirit do not understand the Word of God.

If those who have received the gifts of the Holy Spirit focus on their gifts rather than the Word of God, they become arrogant and end up harming the church.

All gifts of the Holy Spirit should be used to edify the church.

Just as a little salt is added to food to season it, the gifts of the Holy Spirit should be used as a supplementary tool to encourage church members to obey the Word of God.

The gifts of the Holy Spirit should be used solely for the gospel and for the glory of God.

Gifts should never take precedence over the Word of God.

Those who display the gifts of the Holy Spirit must be especially careful.

Otherwise, Satan will intervene in their work, elevating the gifted person above God, leading to pride and destruction.

If they always use their gifts correctly according to the written Word of God, they will edify the church and many others.

Those who use their gifts correctly will edify themselves and become people of good faith.

Those who have received the gifts of the Holy Spirit must be extremely careful not to boast about their gifts or about themselves.

Those who boast about their gifts are exalted by Satan and ultimately used as his tools.

Satan exalts the name of the gifted and places them in a position of great pride.

Those who possess the gifts of the Holy Spirit must always submit themselves to the written Word to avoid Satan's attacks.

Those who possess the gifts of the Holy Spirit, those who know the one God accurately, and those who know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, must be extremely careful.

Those who know the true nature and secrets of Satan must also be cautious.

God's true workers are always the number one target of Satan's attacks.

Always practice God's Word with a heart of love, pray to be filled with the Holy Spirit, and be humble.

Do not deify the dead. Do not hold memorial services on memorial days.

Offering flowers to the dead, worshipping before an unclean corpse, or eating sacrificial food are all acts of idolatry.

All such people are subject to God's wrath.

The bodies of those who have received the Holy Spirit are the temples where God dwells.

Those who defile God's temple will be destroyed. Beware.
